Oaklands Park Run. A new PB for me. Officially, my result was 27:00, but I think the 27:18 that I recorded in Starva is closer to the truth. I should be proud, but I think the PB being recorded as better than I think it was, has thrown me somewhat.

Residents kindest response to the SPRINT Active Travel Scheme was "waste of money". This is me asking why unlike other major roadwork schemes SPRINT must deliver an active travel scheme.

Not my best time, but yesterday's parkrun was no 50! (I'd had a bit of target of hitting the 50 milestone before christmas and I made it with 3 weeks to spare.
Can I make to 100 before next Christmas? (Probably not, but we'll see)

Official time 27:26. New park run PB at Oaklands this morning. I answered the question of could I go below 27:30. I suppose the next question is can I go below 27:00? (A question a year ago, I would never have dreamed, I'd be posing).

Yesterday, I participated in Solihull's Remembrance service. As a Councillor, we don our official robes and stand facing the memorial during the ceremony.
I attend every year as its important to remember those who gave their lives. Had they not, the world would be a much darker place.

Bike theft has effectively been decriminalised.

Me speaking about Solihull's Council Tax Scheme, attempting to get to the bottom of exactly how much money the council receives from central government to support it. The answer was less than it costs to run, but they don't know.

I do strongly believe that women together with their partners should have a right to choose whether they are in the right place to bring up a child, within those early weeks of pregnancy.
Nigel Farage is colluding with anti-abortion groups in the America to roll back women’s rights in the UK.
We won’t stand for it. The Liberal Democrats will not let allow Trump’s America to become Farage’s Britain.

One of the biggest frustrations most people face. I know there are times, when I've simply given up trying to get an appointment.
Waiting weeks to see a doctor when you're sick, worried, or in pain should be unheard of.
The Labour government must back our emergency plan:
🥼 A recruitment and retention drive for 8000 more GPs
🏥 A dedicated fund to reopen surgeries
